Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 2 tbsp granulated sugar, and 1/4 tsp salt.
  2. Step 2: In another bowl, beat 1 large egg with 3/4 cup milk and 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter until smooth.
  3. Step 3: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until combined but still slightly lumpy.
  4. Step 4: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
  5. Step 5: Using a tablespoon, drop small dollops of batter to form mini pancakes about 1.5 inches in diameter. Cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbles form on top and edges look set, then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden. Repeat until all batter is used.
  6. Step 6: For the berry sauce, place 1 cup mixed berries and 2 tbsp maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes until the berries break down and the sauce thickens slightly.
  7. Step 7: Thread 3-4 mini pancakes onto each wooden skewer.
  8. Step 8: Serve the pancake skewers warm with the berry sauce on the side for dipping.
